Oh, ye who love Shakespeare, miss not this film! Hamlet with
martial arts. It is wonderful! If you don't know Shakespeare, this is a great
introduction to same, Rainy Day thinks. If you do know Shakespeare, you are in
for a treat. It is not a word for word adaptation, but the broad story is here,
and recognizable. Beautifully photographed, great costumes, wonderful fight
scenes. A feast for the senses, don't mis it!
There are a few trailers out there, here is one.
